9.7 TIME MACHINES run
 
http://timemachines.tripod.com/ for the video

our car ran a 9.79 sunday at moroso, it took off 1rst n 2nd gear and the turbo line popped out so we cruised it down the line,,,,,60 foot mark 1.35 1/8 5.79 at 109 and the 1/4 9.79 at 115 ,, the car popped the line bfore the 1/8 of the mile,,,,we r still running the complete rear suspension,,,if we r correcct we will definately reach our goal to hit the 8's on an FC's stock rear suspension on 26 by 8.5 inch tires, we r trying to prove that rx7's can play with the toyota big boys..

Holy shit.. very impressive times, and very, very impressive 60ft on stock suspension!

Have any hints to share? ;)

sciff5 11-09-06 05:33 PM

Also what was your race weight for that run?

sciff5 11-09-06 06:17 PM

BTW for those who dont know Moroso is NOT known for being a very well prepped track at all!

Usually people dont run their best times when at Moroso when compared to just about any track. South Fl heat and humidity in addition to the poor track prep dont help any.

the rear end is a stock turbo 87 but all the planetaries are welded inside,,we adjust the rear really tight to the point that its not recommended for street use, thats how weve managed to get the most out of it..axles got made by some people up north like 4 years ago, sorry i dont know the peoples name cuz it was cuz LOPEZ RACING sent them back then,,,ill try to find out....axle tips r from a 93 u have to get the hubs machined in order for them to fit..
